The interior build quality of the Cayman is better than the 370z without a doubt. Fit and finish as well as the quality of materials are top notch and a step above the 370z, but the weakness of the Porsche interior is that it looks somewhat bland and plain compared to the Z's interior which has more character and personality.

I highly suggest sitting in each car to see which one is a better fit as every person's impression may be different to everyone else.

+1 here. I test drove a used Cayman S while shopping for a replacement to my aging del Sol. It's spartan inside, and the center stack is a little "button" busy. But like your Bimmer, those faults quickly disappear after you drive it.

Couldn't spend $10k+ on that used car (smelled used, too!) over the Z, however.
